About this property
Charming Carova Cottage on 4x4 beach, Heated Pool, Hot Tub, Close Beach Access.
360* Photos (copy/paste):
Perfect cottage on the 4x4 beach for an adult getaway or two families with kids. Consider this gem as a remote get-a-way with 9 miles of beach driving after the pavement ends in Corolla, adding to the fun. 4wd vehicles are a must for your trip to Splash of Lime.
Enter the main floor from your front decks and the space opens up to the great room with living area, dining space and fully equipped kitchen.
This main level has two bedrooms... one with a king bed and full private bath (walk-in shower) and the other with a twin-over-full bunk plus a separate twin. There is a full bath in the hallway, plus the laundry room.
The rear deck is off the kitchen and is perfect for sunsets and overlooks the pool.
Upstairs there is an identical setup to below... one king room with full private bath and another room with a twin-over-full bunk plus a separate twin. There is also another full bath in the hallway.
Ground-level below the house provides wonderful space for the hot tub, outdoor shower, charcoal BBQ grill, hammocks, hanging daybed, corn hole, picnic table, and plenty of space for games. Horses come by most days.
Doggos are welcome! Pet fee is $250, an additional fee may be applied for multiple animals as appropriate, please check with Marty. Keep pets leashed and away from the wild horses.
No parking allowed under the house is allowed, all cars must stay on the sand.
The pool is open mid-April through end of October. The pool can be heated for a $300 weekly fee in April/May and Sept/Oct.
We are located in the Northern OBX of NC. Norfolk, VA is the closest airport, approximately 108 miles by car. Map view shows 2 miles to VA border, but the property is only accessible via Rt 12N.

Why they chose this property
Cool things about Splash...
1) New in 2022, so everything is fresh.. Trex decks!
2) Easy and short sand walk to the beach
3) Awesome heated pool and hot tub
The simple 4 bedroom layout is great for groups or multiple families. You have everything you need to enjoy the disconnected feeling of being "on the sand" with the horses, and they come to the house frequently.
